Amold was a native of Illinois who located in Florida in 1884 and settled in Orlando in 1891. He was employed by Mr. S. S. Waterhouse in the feed and fertilizer business, but in May 1898, when Mr. W. R. O'Neal was appointed postmaster, he took Mr. Amold in the office as assistant postmaster. He held this position for 16 years, up to the time of his death. He was always very courteous to the public and made many friends. He had four children, two of whom, Mr. Charles Winn AMOLD and Mrs. James Cecil POWERS still reside in Orlando."
